The recent scale ! pf tho avoirdupois, for the, samo reason, has boon | t referred, because the ounoes are lighter in propor- | ion, than the modem Troy,. devised .during the j reign of Georgo tho First. < , \ ! • The assumed integrity of tho avoirdupois ounoc has been gradually abandoned in mints by acts of legislation; yet all arte and professions are con fessed to require perfect and permanent measures bnd weights, of which moneys should everywhere provo the faithful representatives, f To the student of antiquities, strong reasons exist to credit that the several arrangements for mea sures and weights throughout Europe and Amorica are composed of tho (< shredß and patches” of some former civilisation, hidden in the primitive ro koarchos of an almost forgotten people, whoso man ners and usages xtoro imitated without a general appreciation of “tbo exact principles of physical Law,” upon which they were undoubtedly founded, until tho advance of similar explorations discover them to ns. > Peculiarities, connecting tho metrical system of modern Franco, by an admeasurement of tho cir cumference of the earth, with the anoiont scale of the Tyrian navigators, lead to results we scarcely dare suggest. ' - > 1 - . The recorded coinages of antiquity, among the, islands and along the borders of the Mediterranean sea, were necessarily an accumulation of arte, with science superodded, requiring metallurgical, me trical,' and mathematical graduations.

To Tyre, after her subjection by the Greeks, was permitted tho singular privilege of issuing “auto nomous coins.

Tho old command’laiimprossivo in a rational, practical, physical, moral, and usoful sense, plainly expressed in tho Bbuteronomy xxv.’l6: “Thou shalt have a perfect afid'a just weight; A perfect, and a just measure thou have. : That thy days may be lone in the land ; Whioh tne Master, thy God, givoth thoo!” ' “ Tho length of tho day,’’.computed from tho vi 'bratlon of a pendulum, referred to tho measure of .thelino which supported it—whence the ready re semblance was faithfully drawn., : !

That precision existed in tho arrangements for weights and moneys, deduo'odfrom somo oxaot rule, we finally conclude but suuplo allu sions made' by some Syrian, Arabian, or other Eastern.author, who, in: a sacred drama called “ Theßook of Job,"ascribes to a character of that Eej a physical comparison elucidating natural lomena.ln a dJfltant ago; but rccontly compre ledinoufown!

Choice farm lands for sale.— THE ILLINOIS CENTRAL RAILROAD COMPANY is now preparod to sell about 1,600,000 acres of choice Farming lands, Sit tracts of 40 acres and upwards, on long croditß, and at low rates of interest. Those lands wero granted by the Government to aid In the construction of this Rood, and ar6 among the richest and most fertile in the world. The/ extend from North-East and North-West, through the middle of the State, to the extreme South, and include every variety of climate and productions found between those parallels of lutitndo. The Northern portion is chiefly prairie, interspersed with fine groves, and in the middle and Southern sections timber predominates, alternating with beautiful prairies and openings. The climate is more healthy, mild and equable, than any other part of the country—the air la pure and bra cing, while living streams and springs of excellent water abound. Bituminous Goat is extensively mined, and supplies a cheap and desirable fuel, being furnished at many points at $2 to $4 per ton—and wood can be hod at the same rate per cord.

Chicago is now the greatest grain market In the world; and the facility and economy with which tho products of these lands enu be transported to that market, make them much more profitable, at the prices asked, than those more remote at government rates, as the add! tional cost of transportation is a perpetual tax on the ’attor, which must be born© by the producer, In the re duced price he receives for bis grain, fro.
